I have a buddy who is an 01 FFL and he let another friend of ours order some handguns through him.  The friend buying the guns ordered 3 handguns instead of the 2 we thought he was going to order.  My FFL friend said he thinks he remembers there being a limit of 2 handguns per month in GA, is that accurate?  If it is accurate, what will my FFL friend have to do since he has now received all three?

Thanks!

I didn't think there was any limit, just a special form to be filled out if purchasing more than two in one week I think?

No.  Just needs to fill out the Sale of Multiple hand guns form.  Can't remember what number form it is off the top of my head.

So there is no restriction on selling more than 2, you just have to fill out a different form if you do?

 That is correct.  You can buy as many guns as you want here, but there is a requirement that more than two handguns purchased through a single FFL within a given time frame (5 days, I think?) requires a secondary form be completed and sent to the ATF.

All the dealer would need to do is fill out the Multiple sales form and fax it over to the ATF.  No limit on # of purchases.

You would think there would be a lot of those forms getting filled out, what with the "free money" rebates we're about to get.  I'm picking out what three AKs I want.


Of course, I'm kidding.  I'm so tight I squeak when I walk.  It has killed me to jump on the "ban's a comin'" wagon to buy the guns I already did last year.  I just keep telling myself it's an investment, but I guess when Barack Hussein Obama al Illinoisi and the UN make it illegal to own them, my money will be gone.

No, it's more of a record keeping statistical thing. you can look up on their web site how many gun were sold and it breaks it down by long gun, hand gun, and multiple.

A copy also has to go to a local or state official - mine go to the local Sheriff

"Copy 2 - The official designated by the State or local authorities to receive the form....."

Here's the form...www.atf.treas.gov/forms/pdfs/f33104.pdf

 It's also important to note this form is ONLY used for multiple HANDGUN purchases from the same dealer within the time frame.  The ATF guys I know told me this form is not used for multiple rifle or shotty purchases, as the ATF does not track those (at least not in Georgia, I don't know about other states).
